David Byttow (@davidbyttow) reported from San Francisco, CaliforniaMy mom controlled our AOL account when I was about 13 and would come into my room to sign me in. So, I created an entirely fake AOL login flow in Visual Basic and had her sign me in once to capture the password. Old school phishing.

espi (@espi) reported from San Francisco, CaliforniaI tried to customize my Slack color scheme and it’s nothing short of appalling. Come to think of it, I never really was good at AOL color profiles, either.

Yasmine Scallan (@yasSF) reported from San Francisco, CaliforniaAOL! TERRIBLE! It was to mean “America On Line”! Could not keep a tech advisor complete a help request on line to resolve problems with my email. Jess said “hello, what seems to be the problem” then disappeared and I had to pay to get him on line to start! VERIZON wake up please!

San Francisco Native (@SFnatives) reported from San Francisco, California@stephendelong78 @CALWDA @JulieSuCA @CA_EDD #CAEDD Is a complete disaster. INCOMPETENCE.

PUA, PEUC>PAY

Paul Rodriguez (@rod4p) reported from San Francisco, California@AOL I feel bad for her. This guy wanted to cheat on his wife [ she didn't know he was married ] Then wanted to get rid of the problem when he was to dumb to use protection. 😐

NASDAQ Gallery (@TP_TIGER98) reportedBending Spoons ($BSP) is best understood as a software holding company built around recurring cash flow. Its playbook is direct: buy a digital business with proven demand, rebuild the product and cost base, improve pricing and conversion, then reinvest the cash into another acquisition. Evernote, Vimeo, WeTransfer, Remini and AOL are assets inside that operating system. The numbers make the model clear. In Q1 2026, subscriptions produced 84% of revenue, advertising 12%, and other sources 4%. Revenue grew from $387 million in 2023 to $1.31 billion in 2025, with acquisitions driving much of the increase. The figure I keep coming back to is customer tenure. In Q1 2026, 48% of subscription revenue came from customers with at least five years of tenure, including 28% from customers with at least ten. That gives Bending Spoons time to make deep changes to products it plans to own for the long run. The investment case comes down to execution: buy well, improve the asset, and compound the cash. The risk follows the same logic. Acquisition-led growth only compounds if management keeps choosing the right targets and improves them without weakening products that users already depend on.

Walkon (@walkonOU812) reported@01Patriot1776 Back in the AOL days? My brother talked me into the chat rooms.. I did it as a goof and never serious. I met a lady who just thought I was funny and her husband was in the same chat room.? Became friends online. I met them and he sent me a lot of work.. lifelong friends

Dasha’s Diary (@dariaisnthungry) reportedJust had the craziest dream about my ex’s telling me they moved to the aol near Tel Aviv and it’s haunted by monitoring spirits and how it’s very important that I talk to my ex alone. It was so bad that my ex need someone to help him get dressed and he wouldn’t look at anyone

Lisa Coleman, CTA (@travelwithlisac) reported@AOL what did you change today? I cannot cut and paste from my draft folder. I cannot update my vacation response. The font is messed up. Trying to work and cannot. Please tell me you can fix this??

jojimbo (@jojimbo_) reported@dakroot I started...1994? Intro to computer science I was sold & never looked back. ICQ (messenger) predated aol msgr, it was pretty cool, & i did like chatrooms. I worked nights & usually stayed up all night doing homework, so they were good ways to "socialize" around my crazy hours.

Buffexx (@buffexx) reportedTHIS 7-MINUTE SENATE CROSS-EXAMINATION OF BILL GATES TEACHES MORE ABOUT DEFLECTION THAN ANY HARVARD CASE STUDY. One question. Asked four different ways. Watch how Gates stalls before admitting the restriction. "Well, partly you're using legal terms I'm not familiar with." "I don't think these are legal terms, Mr. Gates." Netscape's CEO sat right in the room. AOL bought his company later that year. Here is the masterclass in corporate defense. Never give a direct 'yes' or 'no.' Gates reframes the premise. He feigns ignorance on basic words. He forces the senator to define terms instead of arguing facts. It’s a classic deposition tactic. Shift the focus to vocabulary, and you control the clock. Media trainers charge $10,000 a day for this pivot. Gates pulled it off under federal oath.

\m/-=3Đ∇サ=-\m/ (@CargoShortLife) reportedThis will fail. MySpace was founded by ******* spammers with a stolen email list. I knew them personally. This is just the animated corpse of AOL and Yahoo trying to get a single cent out of what's left....pathetic

Chris (@CinemaPrincipia) reported@DustyRondeau @PJB170 @WeWatchedAMovie I'm sorry but do you really think parents pimping out their kids is best addressed by going after people other than the parents. Also, that wasn't what these stings were. There are statistics on molestation. 1 in 5 children are propositioned on the internet. It happened to me regularly in the old AOL days. (AOL did nothing to crack down on it initially) However, that is not who molested me. The number of kids molested by a stranger online is so small it isn't even statistically significant. Because I'm a survivor, I've talked to other survivors a lot in different groups and literally have never met anybody who was molested by a stranger.
